Default 2024 Window Tint

I would like to Tint the front 2 windows on my 2024 Platinum to match the rear window tint, I would like all 4 windows to have same look.

Has anyone selected a tint to do this?
What % tint number should I ask shop to use
Any help is always appreciated
thanks Roger

Any shop that does state inspections (at least here in Texas) will be able to put on a meter on the back windows and tell you the %, FYI.

20% may be a TAD lighter but it won't get you in trouble with the gendarmes...

Any good shop will know what to use. That’s what most customers ask for. I think mine is 20% I had them do a brow on the windshield as well.

Leadfoot your truck looks great & adding windshield brow is an excellent suggestion

35% is what's legal in MO. I haven't done my F-150 but did a couple of vehicles with this tint level in the past. It's certainly a little lighter tint than the typical OEM 20% privacy glass but in my experience the only time you can really tell it's lighter is when you can see direct light shining through the vehicle. Otherwise, it's a very subtle difference. I'd rather not get a tint removal ticket because a LEO had a burr up his behind that day, so I chose to err to the legal side.
